Lamborghini's TL700 £1,800 Android Phone is sick, in the classic, dictionary-defined, non-street sense…
Ugh! When will these "high end" companies ever learn! Simply whacking your brand name onto the side of some gold plated crap and then charging top dollar for it really isn't good enough, even for a coke-addled, jumped-up, self-aggrandizing zillionaire….
24-carat gold MacBook Pro may have ice, but just isn't cool
If it ain't broke, don't fix it. If you insist on fixing it, don't make 24-carat gold your primary tool. The tech makeover specialists at Computer Choppers have been at it once again, tainting the sleek lines of a MacBook…
World's most expensive iPad a gold-plated steal at £130,000
I personally cannot afford a regular iPad which, at £429 for the cheapest model in the UK, is noticeably more expensive here than in the US. However, if you're the super-rich show-off type, you can start salivating over this £130,000…
$19,999 for a diamond-encrusted Apple iPad
You may think yourself part of a pretty exclusive club of early-adopters if you were one of the lucky 120,000-odd who scooped up an iPad pre-order over the weekend. But nothing reeks of exclusivity like diamond-encrusted tech, or a diamond…
Nokia announces 8800 Carbon Arte: more high-end mobile goodness for rich techies
Nokia has expanded its 8800 Arte series of upper class mobile handsets with the launch of the 8800 Carbon Arte.
As you might have guessed, the handsets are engineered from carbon fibre, titanium, polished glass, and stainless steel.
While many people are trying to carry lighter mobile devices so they’re not weighed down by them all day, Nokia is making quite an issue of the “impressive weight” of the phone. Yes, I’d love to pay loads of money for a heavy phone…
Hail to the world’s ugliest most expensive MacBook Air
Unveiled at CeBIT, this is the world’s first MacBook Air to get the Swarovski crystal makeover treatment. This is what creator Bling My Thing (that’s the name, I swear I’m not making it up) is calling the ‘Golden Age’. Honestly, hasn’t anyone worked out that it doesn’t make any difference how many Swarovski bloody crystal you super-glue to a piece of technology, it still looks utterly ridiculous.
IXOS brings budget bling protection to iPod Nano 3
IXOS has expanded its First by IXOS budget brand with some budget bling for keeping your iPod Nano 3 nice and safe from bumps and scratches. The XMI419-AS Silicone is a heavy-duty silicone case available in pink, white, or…
Get P Diddy, 50 Cent and Kanye West on the next plane to Taiwan, LG has made a fridge out of diamonds!
Has anyone else noticed just how blingtastic LG is becoming these days? Between their gold Shine mobile, Swarvoski-encrusted fridge, wooden LCD TV (and then that gold LCD TV), they’ve got enough shine and sparkle to resurrect Liberace from his grave.
The latest eye-catcher…
Top 5 Gadget Sparklers for Bonfire Night
Remember, remember the 5th of the November – that's how the saying goes. Now Guy Fawkes, there was a man who knew a thing or too about making a statement. If only he'd have done it with his gadgets though and shown off his status with some bling, rather than trying to blow up the Houses of Parliament.
So, as it's Firework Night today, what better way to mark it than with five top sparklers from the techno-world. Unfortunately, not all of them can be waved around in the air and they don't make pretty colours in the smoke, but with gold and crystals on them, each one definitely costs more than a penny for the guy…
Shiny Video Review: LG Swarovski fridge brings a touch of Liberace to your kitchen
There were probably more technologically advanced fridge-freezers on show at the LG launch Alex attended last night, but this was the Blingiest Fridge Ever, so it had to be featured (plus there were no fridges with LCD screens on display yet, sadly). Just in case the clamouring crowd of fridge worshippers makes her spiel hard to hear, the key words are these: Swarovski bling…
